User blog comment:KirLudwig/SUPER COOL EVENT IDEAS FOR 2018-2019/@comment-34067408-20180408005319

My idea for the 2018 Christmas event:

The event will start at Route 15 (again), but instead of having to catch a ton of pokemon, the tree is missing. When an NPC around the area is interacted with, they'll say this.

"What to do, what to do... Oh! Hello there. I'm afraid I can't talk now, we have a bit of a problem on our hands. You see, the Christmas Tree that used to be here has gone missing! First the tree monster, now this? You seem like a strong trainer, do you mind helping us?"

If the player answers no:

"I thought so."

(Note: If this option is chosen, if the player interacts with the NPC again, the original line of dialogue will play, until the player chooses yes.)

If the player answers yes:

"Great! Now, my theory is that the old people on Route 8 may have taken our tree to sell. I would want to check, but I can't navigate through Route 14. Can you go check on them?"

Once the player arrives at the house, they'll see a relatively big tree and an old lady standing in front of it. Once you interact with the old lady, she'll say this.

"Hello there. Would you like to buy some of our trees? We recently found this one on Route 15 and did not at all steal it. Don't even try to use cut on it, its wood is too bulky. Anyway, you look too young, and we can't sell to people of your age. Sorry!

If the player tries to use cut on the tree, the move will fail, and a message will display saying

The wood is too tough, you need to use something sharper.

The move required for this is Guillotine. One of the NPCs near the man who initiated the event will act as a move tutor for the move. After Guillotine is used on the tree, a cutscene will initiate showing the tree fall down. The old lady will react to this by saying:

"YOU STUPID KIDS! Grr, we were so close too. No matter, I will beat you in a battle and make you regret this!"

The lady's team will consist of:

Bisharp

Sceptile (Christmas)

Sandslash (Alolan)

Ninetales (Alolan)

Stantler

Abomasnow (Shiny and Mega)

After you win, she'll say

"I can't even win against a kid? I am SO frustrated right now!"

After this, she'll walk away, but then fall face-first into the thick snow (most of the map will be covered in snow). After that, the NPC from before will fly over in a helicopter and pick up the tree using a rope from the copter. Then, the NPC will say:

"Thanks for your help with this! I don't have anything to give you, but I heard that there's a strange looking tree pokemon over on Route 9!"

Once the player goes over to Route 9 and interacts with the big tree, a special Christmas Trevenant will walk up behind the player and initiate a battle! This is the player's chance to catch the Trevenant, and after this, the event is over.

Christmas Trevenant will be level 50 when encountered and will be a Grass/Ice type.
